Ohio recorded 562 providers in the latest CMS NPI registry weekly update, representing 5% of the national weekly total. The registry lists 305 new providers this week, including 519 individuals and 43 organizations. That concentration places Ohio among the more active state markets in the update and signals substantial behavioral health infrastructure across major population centers, including Cincinnati, Columbus, Cleveland, Toledo and Dayton. NPI activity does not confirm that a provider is accepting patients, carrying an active caseload or offering ABA services.

ABA Workforce Mix

The registry lists 8 BCBA credentials and 47 RBT credentials, including 1 dual credential held by a provider identified as both BCBA and RBT. These credential counts overlap with taxonomy fields and are not mutually exclusive shares of Ohio’s provider total. The wide gap between BCBAs and RBTs points to a direct-service workforce that is much larger than its identified supervisory pool. Because BCBAs supervise RBTs, authorize and monitor treatment, and support clinical quality, limited BCBA representation could constrain how quickly Ohio clinics expand technician-led ABA services. The single dual credential suggests little visible overlap between the supervisory and technician roles in this update.

Demographics and Organizations

Gender data identifies 412 female providers, 89 male providers and 18 nonbinary providers, corresponding to 79%, 17% and 3%. The percentages do not total 100% because of rounding. Mighty Acorn Counseling LLC appears twice in the registry, making it the only organization specifically identified as appearing multiple times in the supplied data. Repeated NPIs or entries should not be interpreted as equivalent clinical capacity or separate operating locations.

Ohio’s sizable overall registry activity and RBT presence suggest continued workforce development, but the smaller BCBA pool may remain a key constraint on ABA access and supervised service growth.
